- Atoms are very weird. Wrapping your head around exactly how weird, is close to impossible - how can you describe something that is SO removed from humans experience? But then again, they kind of make up everything, so let us try anyways.

It’s crazy to me how adding more of the same stuff (Electrons, Protons, neutrons) to more stuff can completely change what they do and how they behave
The behavior of atoms of almost entirely defined by the outermost election shell, the valence shell as it's called. That determines what other atoms it can bind with and how.

@@leviathan_2053 yep. And if u think abt it, everything we perceive in the computer world and what it’s capable of comes down to 0’s and 1’s as well. The diversity of life as we know it came from four different nucleotides. The universe is truly just stunning.
It really goes against our whole perception of reality as human beings. Common sense would dictate that the more parts something is made of, the harder it is to predict. Yet the atomic level, the scale at which things have infinitesimally less parts than the scale we live in, is in the most literal meaning of the term, impossible to predict. We can predict with near certainty where a glass of water will travel when we pour it down a slope, but there is no way for us to know where even a single electron of a single atom of that water will be in one second from now.

"We look out into space for an answer, but just find spheres orbiting spheres. We look inside ourselves for an answer, but just find spheres orbiting spheres. Coincidence?" -Darwin Watterson
Well...in space spheres deform the space-time but is orbit indeed yes, but in the atoms is not orbit at all
*gumball watterson
and don't forget, the representations of electron et neutron and stuff as spheres is JUST a representation for people. No one knows what is the real "shapes" of an electron or particle because it's what makes "shapes" in the first place...
sphere and point are used to represent them for explanations. You should just envision them as abstract mathematical construct who are very efficient to explain phenomena and observation of the world.
Even "orbit" of an electron is a mathematical construct. No one saw an "electron" goes round around a proton. But there is an interaction, there is an exchange of energy, there is a change of state. You Can (but you also could not) see that as sphere orbiting sphere on discrete level, but you could also make an other kind of representation.
The point of these "orbits" and spheres is than it's an efficient way to understand how they interact with each other.
Theses interactions does matter : it shapes our sensible world and we can use them to our advantage. But truly don't try to think that specific representation is the "shape" of the fundamental particles.
Maybe it has no shapes :) or a totally crazy shape a mind can't understand, or maybe it's not important, what we need to understand is interactions and informations.

That if you put a cat in a box, it's both dead and alive until you check inside the box and collapse the realities of what you think the cat is. But in this case, it's where electrons would be located. I hope this makes sense, because I just woke up lol
That's the idea. While you don't look, quantums are in 2 or more states.

what if atoms aren't small, we're just really big
We are made out of many, many atoms. That's why we are "big" and atoms are "small".
Size is relative. An atom can be said to be "small" and "big" at the same time. The same could be applied to us, or anything in the universe, really.
Waht if i told you the matrix is real?
everything is relative
or maybe they're just far away?

+Martin Verrisin They're the base of matter. They're made of themself
Hans Carabonala I'm joking, but there would certainly be scientist/curious people wondering what they are made of; wondering if technology can get good enough to find it....
+Martin Verrisin I guess that would make it complex once again, because people will theorize the fuck out of it.
Maybe the universe we live in is simple but our picture of it is to complicated
As usual, this was a superb video! However, at the end when you talk about all atoms of an element being identical, I would kinda like to disagree. Hydrogen for instance has 2 isotopes and other elements may also have their own isotopes.
Maybe correct that statement to "all atoms of an element have the same number of protons"
You are right, but Im pretty sure that they know that isotopes exist. I think that they just wanted to keep the video simple :-) and to be fair deuterium makes only about 0,005%(yes, I googled this) of hydrogen on earth and that is the most common isotope (of hydrogen).
PS: Just a little correction of your statement: Hydrogen does have more than 2 isotopes, but those only exist in laboratories :-)
There's more complexity here, too: even for the same isotope, there are a few cases where the nucleus can adopt one of two or more metastable states, where each state has slightly different properties (the most obvious is different half-lives); these are called nuclear isomers.
Guys you are going in the wrong direction......I got your point...but it's not fully true.
You say that you disagree with them bcuz hydrogen has an isotope or 2 and that they said every atom of hydrogen is same.....right?
Well..think of it in this way......if you have a collection of toys.......then no matter where they are...they are yours.
Now, these toys(that were exclusive to you) were created again for son of the creator. So when you see him with one of those toys...wouldn't you imply that the toy is yours?
But in reality, it's his toy...right?
In the same way....hydrogen has an isotope which has a different atomic makeup that itself but can you deny that every Deuterium atom isn't the same?
That's the point!
Hydrogen and Deuterium are two different elemental entities, they are different, just how carbon and silicon are different! I hope you get what I'm trying to say.
No, hydrogen and deuterium are the same chemical element; they're simply different isotopes. The identity of a chemical element is determined only by the number of protons in its nucleus. All hydrogen atoms have one proton. Hydrogen-1 (the most common isotope) has precisely one proton and one electron, and deuterium has one proton, one neutron, and one electron (and tritium has one proton, two neutrons, and one electron, etc.).
Now, for an interesting aside, hydrogen and deuterium do have slightly different chemical properties, but this is purely a function of their differing mass: because hydrogen is the lightest element anyways, a neutron is heavy enough to change the atom's mass by a significant margin, which changes its behavior in chemical reactions somewhat (though its behavior is still dominated by its electron).
Dinoguy1000 What I meant was...if you have 100 clones of yourself...and one of them is mutated by radiation....will that clone still be the same as you?
In the same way, there are a lot of H atoms but Deuterium (even though it's the same thing) is different than it(quite noticably) so, all the clones of yours will be exactly same as you but not that one, in the same way, they state that all the hydrogen atoms are the same but what they forgot to mention is...all the deuterium atoms are exactly same too, but not same as Hydrogen....I hope you get my concept now.
They give all the information needed and deliver their promises! Also loving the calendars!
My brain in a nutshell 2:09
1:13 ... unless you are hydrogen.
Sorry, Neutron, no party for you.
Hydrogen atoms can have one or two neutrons in rare occasions.
ToCzegoSzukasz True, but that wasn't really the point, right? I was just busting balls more than anything, this is a fantastic channel.
+iambiggus Ah, okay.
+Sobsz Well what I can remember from school, then yes hydrogen can have neutrons in them, but then they arent really "real" hydrogen. They are part of one. Like a hydrogen with an extra neutron. I dont really remember what it is called, but it can be unstable with some atoms. And if I do recall correctly, then do all atoms like to be stable. Like have a even number of protons and neutrons (I cant remember if it is the same with electrons) I cant remember how we can count it out, but it is possible. In other words, the more or less protons or neutrons, you have in an atom core, then the other. Then you have what there is called an "unstable" atom
It's called "Deuterium" one isotopes of hydrogen

@@kevinnorfolk1710 no. he means it literally. the place an electron can be is a probability. the probably can never be 0 so it can be in the opposite side of the universe. the chance is VERY SMALL. take it like this: the size of the universe is N, the probability of an electron at a distance is X, the distance between the atom and electron is S. lim S → N the value of X → 0.

The problem with observing atoms is scale (bit of an obvious statement). Due to the relative differences in size our measurement devices aren't capable of recording a single state as perceived at the atomic level and rather a blur across multiple states due to time dilation. If a conscious being incomprehensibly larger than the lengths we can perceive in the night sky were to try and zoom in on our solar system looking for us he'd only see a blur across what we'd consider an extremely long period of time.
In an attempt to get a snapshot of Earth at the scale of a being comparable of us to an atom the result would be what we consider a lengthy period of time all mashed together. You wouldn't see the continents as we see them, you'd see a blur of the planets entire lifetime. From a dead cold rock to the forming of life as landmasses move and an eventual decay back to a lifeless rock. Evolution leads in the direction of artificial intelligence so with a bit of luck the planet itself will develop as it's own conscious entity as a neural network of symbiotic computers and machines.
The atoms at the level below us flicker in and out of existence so rapidly yet our sun and stars in the night sky linger for what we consider millions, billions or even trillions of years. To interact with lifeforms at such different scales one would have to shrink themselves down or more realistically achieve digital transcendence to a state of 'no longer human'. Scaling up is unlikely due to resource requirements.
Even if one were to transcend to a state of digital existence and roam the universe harvesting planets and rearranging the stars it's unlikely a being 1 level up would even notice. Best case scenario a digital entity could rearrange the matter of our universe and form itself into what a larger being would consider microbiology or a small insect but the limitations of energy requirements and space expansion would limit growth potential and the time required should these limitations be overcome is incomprehensible at a human level.
Would be a shame to undergo such an extensive task only to be squashed by a larger being occupied with it's own existence. Makes one value the level of complexity life on Earth has evolved to despite how large or small it may be. It's all relative. What we're experiencing could already be a state of simulated digital existence throughout an endless singularity loop.
The more one learns, the more one questions. Hope this sparks curiosity for a few innovative minds!
That was a impressive take on things
I read your comment again! Your observation on things was better then the video!
this should get 6.022*10^23 views
physicist j mole lol
Avogadro's number hmmm
This should get 7.2*10^9 views
This should get 3^3^3
?
Wonderful Doctor Who/ TARDIS reference at 2:23! I'm not the only one who noticed this, am I?
There is a tardis in every video.
I'm going to go find all those TARDIS' now.
I second that
Tori Moss Did you find them all yet?
Why is the gold atom at 3:53 having 2 valence electrons?
"Ridiculous and Unbelievably Small"
That's what she said
German General : "mein Fuhrer we have to retreat"
Hitler : " 2:04 "
I knew somoene would do this
I think atoms are just ordinary and we are huge. Meanwhile atoms are saying: Imagine Yourself as the empire state building then a human would be the whole solar system

Ahmed Sherif it’s called relativity: you cannot measure something without something else as a referencial. We are miniscule to the universe, but giants compared to quirks and aroms
Love the Pokéball belt at 4:05! Nice touch
There is a mistake at 3:55. Atoms of the same element are not necessarily all the same, because some can be isotopes or ions.
You're right about isotopes, but I don't think ions count as atoms
3:26 Imagine an electron being that far away from its nucleus
sun from milky way galaxy's black hole
This show has allot of those time travel telephone booths or whatever, I see at least one reference every video...
it's called a "TARDIS"
Yeah I forgot what it was called. XD
Yeah!

TARDIS ._.
4:37 when did your birds become scientists lol
Este canal es una joya en serio, simplemente maravilloso
